If a family of anthropomorphic mice were to meet around a TV, I imagine they'd gather around something like TinyCircuits’ TinyTV 2. The gadget sits on four slender, angled legs with its dials and classic, brown shell beckoning viewers toward its warm, bright stories. The TinyTV’s screen is only 1.14 inches diagonally, but the device exudes vintage energy.

And, at least for those of us whose brains have probably melted from spending too much time on an app where said arguments take place, it turns out it's pretty sound advice. As the New York Times reports, there's a growing body of evidence suggesting that simply spending time in nature can instantly boost your algorithm-addled brain's attention span. It's part of

Nathan Drescher / Android Authority Obsidian is far more than just a simple note-taking app. If you’re willing to put in some effort, you can transform it into a highly versatile personal knowledge management (PKM) system, capable of everything from a detailed to-do list and a budget tracker to various sophisticated databases.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman got a taste of his own medicine when he went on the New York Times' turf and tried to twist the newspaper's copyright lawsuit against it. As flagged by PG Gamer, the live recording of the NYT's "Hard Fork" podcast — hosted by journalists Kevin Roose and Casey Newton, and featuring as guests Altman and OpenAI's chief operating officer Brad Lightcap — was testy from its start. Almost immediately upon sitting down on the "Hard Fork" stage, the CEO came out punching. "Are yo
Folks, it's official: the object that astronomers recently spotted blowing through the outer solar system came from interstellar space. Yesterday, the intriguing stranger was named A11pl3Z. Now, it's earned the esteemed designation 3I/ATLAS — that "I" standing for "interstellar." 3I/ATLAS is currently located between the orbits of the asteroid belt and Jupiter, the New York Times reports, where it's about 416 million miles away from the Sun, NASA said. That's equal to four and a half times the
As the AI race shows no signs of slowing down, it's clear which countries started in pole position — and are poised to hold onto their lead.

And guess who he's turning to to speed things up? Elon Musk, who Trump has "empowered" to take measures to get the beleaguered aerospace company to stop dragging its feet, the New York Times reports. Trump's pick for the task isn't surprising, since he's asked the world's richest man to do everything
